Last week, the S&P 500 closed at its best level ever.
If you’re not following the markets closely, that might surprise you. And I get it – investor sentiment is anything but positive today.
We saw a pullback into the weekend and more selling to start the week. Both have brought a sense of uneasiness to the stock market that I haven’t felt in months.
Investors are grappling with a slew of factors – from sticky inflation to tariffs to geopolitical tensions. All of these have cast a shadow over the market’s recent high.
The CBOE Volatility Index – also known as the fear index – spiked nearly 20% over the last two trading sessions, reflecting the heightened uncertainty and fear in the market. Investors and analysts are divided – some are expecting a temporary correction, while others foresee a more prolonged downturn.
With all the uncertainty hanging in the air, I thought it would be useful to break down some charts today. I’ll show you what’s really going on in the stock market – not what the mainstream media is selling.
Be sure to watch today’s video update below.
Here’s to the future,
